DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING:

The 991.2 Carrera aimed to deliver on the best of both worlds, maximizing both efficiency and performance from its turbocharged flat-six. But a missing piece of the equation was sound, as it lacked the distinct character of 911s before it. So we aspired to deliver a no-compromise sound solution that still retained the updated Carrera’s technological advancements.

Our Valved Exhaust System was uniquely developed to produce the scintillating character of our non-valved X-Pipe, while creating a secondary flow path that subdues that sound level for pleasant cruising under the radar. We achieved this improvement on sound level and character with a large-diameter 3” chambered x-pipe to properly blend the exhaust for a smooth, high-pitched tone, and maximize flow for performance potential.

With valves open and cycling through the Carrera’s driving modes, the sound profile is rich, robust and dramatic, especially in Sport mode with its pops and burbles. But even with upgraded headers or catalytic converters, as featured on our development car, it never reaches a level of aggression that is unsuitable for street use.

Even still, it was our objective to create a driving experience at low RPMs and in everyday driving situations that is pleasant, civilized, and anonymous when needed, both inside and outside the car. It was imperative to have a tangible delta in the sound level between driving modes and thus we engineered our secondary flow path to handle this creatively.

Because of the orientation of the factory exhaust and its inlet and outlet pipes, we were not afforded the space to implement a muffler for the secondary flow path, and we understood that restricting tubing diameter would only affect the overall sound level so much. To this end, we maintained the minimal 1.75” tubing diameter that the OEM valves-closed flow path uses but introduced a pair of massive resonators to additionally suppress sound level, smooth out drone, and work against each other to cancel exhaust pulses to further subdue the exhaust note at low RPMs before the PSE programming opens it up at higher revs. Even as sound level is being limited in this condition, overall flow is still improved over the factory muffler, and that dynamic, theatrical sound is still a spin of a dial away.
